Emergence of a Novel NDM-5-Producing Sequence Type 4523 Klebsiella pneumoniae Strain Causing Bloodstream Infection in China

ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae is a significant infectious pathogen that causes bloodstream infections. This study aimed to genetically characterize a novel sequence type 4523 (ST4523) multidrug-resistant (MDR) K. pneumoniae strain recovered from the blood of a 79-year-old Chinese female patient wit...
